About
ashley ijoema omoma is a filmmaker, writer, mover and interdisciplinary artist creating documentary & narrative films, experimental videos and visual installations. A daughter of Nigerian immigrants, much of her work is influenced by her nomadic upbringing which challenges ideals of a singular Black experience. Personal and communal liberation, Black interiority, Black femalehood and the complexities of migration & diaspora are recurring themes of her work often explored through music, memory, intimate findings in personal archives, love, intergenerational familial ties, definitions of home, self perception, juju and time travel.
